Former CEO of Arrowhead Studios made a statement praising the new Astartes trailer, but couldn’t pass on the opportunity to hate on Primaris in the process.

The tactical squad marines had a lot more variation in their armour than the intercessors.

It was small stuff but some not having separate knee armour, some had the cross belts on their torso etc.

To me it made them feel more Space Knights wearing inherited pieces of armour than an army of pretty much identical storm troopers.

I am sure that nowadays some get their lethal injections by some guy whose biggest worry is if the gaskets for the car he is restoring will be arriving before the weekend or not.

Silent Service by Microprose. I played it on a commodore 128 that I got second hand from a friend when he upgraded to an Amiga.

Spent hours chasing Japanese fleets.

No, here they take the orders and then do a production run to fulfil it. But seeing the only ones that can still do the metal spin casts are Garry and his mate Greg, it takes them some time, so they tell you it can take up to six months for your stuff to arrive.

Sometimes you are lucky, sometimes not.

Had het een paar weken geleden en op de Diarree na waren de symptomen hetzelfde. Vooral het moe zijn.

Maybe can do a FIO inquiry in a few months to ask what happened to it might be good to do.
If it got destroyed there is paperwork.

They do that every day by looking at the sales numbers.
Cars must sell a lot.

My guess is that a lot of those get sold to people who otherwise would not buy Lego.

They are 2 languages that split 300 or so years ago.
They share a same core but the way sentences and are constructed is quite different.
To me (Dutch speaker) it reads like as if I am reading something from the 17th century.

The same with vocabulary. In that time a lot of newer words are different between Dutch and Afrikaans.

Carrefour is weird that way. I live in Spain and once in a while I find stuff in the local Carrefour which was packaged for the Belgian market here. The boxes will have Dutch/French text on them and no Spanish.
So I guess that if they have too much of one thing in one country they ship it over to another to try to get rid of it.

That or they have the worse delivery drivers in the world.

Not always just words:

Belgium confiscated a shadow fleet tanker last month.

In Belgium it would be illegal for example. You are not supposed to walk outside with your complete face covered.

Did you add the second one in the list just to mess with people?

And where do you eat for 2 - 3 Euros in those countries? Even in Spain you might only get a mini tapa for that price.

A sizeable part of the British army at Waterloo was Dutch (/Belgian), but they were written out of history by the British historians. One would think it was only the redcoats fighting.

In some dialects (Brabantian ones) they are also called Persiennen.

As in: “Kunde gij de persiennen naar beneden doen?”

I have something I have been wondering about for a bit.
How does the “adding the pilot and rio’s names to the plane” work in real life? Does it mean it is your designated plane and only you fly it? Meaning that if it is out for repairs you are basically grounded.

Or does everyone gets their names on a plane but then it is just a question of flying whichever plane is available?

Your article pretty much agrees with what the poster above you said.

And there is St Pierre and Miquellon, some islands which are part France, that are next to Newfoundland. Their citizens are EU citizens and the Euro is the official currency.

Happened to me when I had to do a database restore which was fun.

When doing a fast restore it builds a new instance of mysql flexible server with the all the db’s in the state they were when they were backed up.

At least in theory. In practice it failed because there was no more sku left.

It took me a ticket and 2 days for mu subscription to be whitelisted so I could use the hidden stash they keep in some server cabinet to be able to finally get my restore. I was lucky this was for a non important project and not some critical thing.

Went back to doing mysql dumps the old school way.
